Payment Integrity | Approach

**Different vendor models.** Very different visibility.

Traditional payment integrity vendors hand back savings summaries and little else. See exactly why claims are flagged, iterate rules in hours instead of weeks, and gain full operational control over your PI program.

Two approaches to payment integrity

Traditional vendors
Detection logic
Full transparency into detection logic, so your team sees exactly why a claim was flagged.
High-level savings summaries with limited insight into why claims are flagged.
Rule changes
Non-technical teams build and iterate rules in hours.
IT hand-offs and vendor queues that can take weeks.
Rule maintenance
Rules are maintained automatically as codes, policies, and reference tables change.
Rules degrade as coding standards and policies evolve.
Pricing model
Flexible pricing aligned with long-term program health, not just recoveries.
Contingency fees that reward recovery over root-cause resolution.
Provider trust
Evidence-based findings letters with clear, root-cause explanations.
Findings with limited rationale, driving disputes and abrasion.
Operational control
Full operational control, with flexible engagement models including full end-to-end services, in-house automation, or hybrid support.
Vendor-managed workflows that limit in-house visibility.
